Question

Two cards are dealt at random from a standard deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that the first card is a King and the second card is a $\heartsuit$

Answer 1

Answer:

1 / 51

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of cards in a deck = 52

Number of heart suit = 13

Number of kings = 4

Recall:

Probability = (required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

P(first card is king) = 4/52 = 1/13

P(second card is heart) = 13/51

Hence,

P(first card is king) * P(second card is heart)

(1/ 13) * (13/51) = 13 / 663 = 1/ 51
